1713 Voorhies Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11235
At 1713 Voorhies Avenue in Sheepshead Bay, this 6-unit, 3-story, 1934 New Law Tenement building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent months, with the most concerning pattern being repeated heat and hot water problems. Between November 2023 and March 2024, there were multiple complaints (at least 10 incidents) regarding inadequate heat and hot water, with some violations being issued and others requiring inspections.
Specifically, violations were documented in January 2024 (Class C) regarding hot water issues in apartment 4, and similar problems were reported in March 2024, though some complaints noted that services were restored when tenants were contacted. The building has also faced persistent issues with windows, particularly in apartment 4, with multiple emergency complaints and violations regarding window frame problems throughout early 2024.
Additional maintenance concerns include infrastructure issues documented in 2024, with violations issued in June 2024 for defective window springs and damaged plaster surfaces in apartment 4, and earlier violations in January 2024 regarding self-closing doors in the vestibule. The building's boiler system has also been a point of concern, with a December 2023 complaint resulting in an ECB violation regarding various boiler issues including a missing chimney base cleanout and a defective safety valve, with a certified correction date of July 2024. While the building responded to a bedbug inspection requirement in April 2024, indicating no infestations during the reporting period, this 1934 structure has exhibited recurring pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly during the winter months of 2023-2024, that have required multiple inspections and interventions by housing authorities.
